Dear Anthony,
Thank you very much for everything you did to help get my Uncle Bob back home to Chicago. It was not easy for me to search the Internet and find web sites that looked like they could accomplish what I needed done. It was NOT easy to make the decision to contact your company and place my trust in you and your company based only on a phone conversation. Unfortunately, there are a lot of negative stories regarding companies providing funeral and cremation services. Many people feel taken advantage of at a time of grief and confusion. I want you to know that you personally presented your services in such a way that I was immediately assured that everything I needed done would be handled with the most sincere care and utmost professionalism at a fair and equitable price. You had answers to all of my questions regarding handling the necessary details from Chicago and took charge of everything in New York. I cannot tell you how relieved my entire family is that you have helped us with our loss in such a compassionate and competent way.
Thank you and God Bless You,
Lesley.
